| First it's the iguanas eating them, now it's tadpoles stripping the pads.
I've never had problems in the past like I'm having this year. All of the lilies are in huge pots or tubs, does anyone know of a way to get rid of tadpoles? In order to net them out, I'll have to pull everything out to get to them. thanks guys

| They would probably prefer algae. If you don't have algae in your tubs, you might consider buying those algae wafers. You should be able to get them at Walmart of any petstore. |

| Thanks Nancy, but I have no intention of feeding or keeping them. I play around with hybridizing waterlilies, they are in my seedling tubs and stripping them bare. In order to get them out, I will have to pull hundreds of seedlings first. Corrie |

| In that case leave the tadpoles and let them eat your lillies. |

| Someone on another board suggested Rotenone. Worked perfect. |
